In the Dark


Reach for the light is all we seem to do, the epic battle for expression continues.

We  

 Always toward the light ,  

always floundering in Darkness. 

So hard to be oneself, and yet society demands that it be so.

In the Dark.

Is our world, our people, our faith.

Reach for the Light. 

expression of ourselves, the cause for our mortality and cause.

Look at the stars!

Even in the darkest of moments, piercing white lights shine through to one,

leading the way.

Guiding us toward morning, 

toward light.

Toward Freedom.
